Well people need to start with themselves>Muh scary gamesHorror games are not required to be scary>B-but NO JUMPSCARESIt's almost impossible to end tension building without startling the playerThe player then passes it off as a cheap jumpscare.. ..then moans that all horror games rely on cheap jumpscares

Jumpscares is too convenient of an excuse for faggots to try and act brave and denounce the quality of a games setupsThe ONLY games that actually rely on jumpscares these days are...Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

The problem is you have to WANT to be scared for horror games to work. You have to play in the dark, remove all distractions and immerse yourself in the game. Sadly most people either think a game should be able to do that for them by magic or they deliberately sabotage it, so they can say they completed the game without feeling scared.

I think VR is going to help a great deal when it's more commonplace. I played a few demos and Alien Isolation on the DK2 and it makes a massive difference.

Horror games do have to be scary, are you stupid? Sure, jump scares are a cheap and ineffective way of achieving that but that has nothing to do with the goal of horror games which is succinctly; horror.

Good post, it's like a serious junior high debate but you've latched on to a thread of logic that doesn't work

Doesn't actually play cartridges, it plays "pre-installed games".It's more or less just an official version of things like the handheld Genesi (is that how you pluralize Genesis?).So... I don't see the point, really.

>public fucking matchmaking>no auto-balance>ctf and payload race are the only good modes, all the others are fucking time-wasters and no one wants to play defense>Soldier still overpowered and a fanbase meme treasure that should not be touched

>>345318878It's alright. II is definitely the weakest. I recommend you just get to playing instead of letting /v/ memesters poison the well for you. What are you doing asking here anyway? You should know what sort of answer to expect.

>>345318878Origins is the best when it come to story, characters and overall world immersion and can be much more difficult and plays more like a strategy game on anything above normal, 2 was alright but the only thing it does better is combat gameplay, inquisition was the only one i couldn't bring my self to beat because the power mechanic was stupid and woupd force you to do mundane tasks just to complete the story so i got bored shortly after skyreach and the multi-player is fun at first but extremely repetitive.
